The recording and sharing of our personal and collective stories is an important part of how we learn how we live, and how we define ourselves as a people, community and as a nation. Exploring and documenting the stories that exist in a family and in a community is also a rich and meaningful way for students of all ages to make their own connections to history and culture and a powerful way to raise awareness of their own roles and possibilities as individuals.//http://www.thedirectorintheclassroom.com/dcnewsletter.php//
